Description:
Jamaa Fanaka's debut film adapts Goethe's "Faust" using Blaxploitation conventions, overlaid on a remake of the 1972 film *Super Fly*. The movie features a non-synchronous soundtrack and frequently employs shaky, out-of-focus camerawork, creating a sense of unease. Unlike *Super Fly*'s portrayal of drug use, this film depicts a violent heroin injection. It's a two-part story exploring themes of morality. —Jan-Christopher Horak
